Abstract
The reaction of trimethylamine with aqueous hexacyanoferrate(III) gave formyldimethylamine. The rate depends on the first powers of the concentrations of substrate and oxidant; the activation parameters were: E=57.0 kJ mol−1, ΔS≠=−154 JK−1 mol−1. The mechanism involves abstraction of the proton attached to the α-carbon, yielding a radical, whose ESR spectrum gave 9 spectral lines.
